The Barkley Marathons consists of five loops, 20 miles each, along unmarked trails in rural Tennessee, with about 67,000 feet of elevation. David Allan/CNN If accepted into the race, runners get a "letter of condolence." David Allan/CNN Barkley runners jump into a creek and wade through a tunnel that goes under Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary. Instead, it was weeks of training that laid the foundation for Paris’ Barkley success. We know that travel is a huge component of the carbon footprint of running and racing.”Regardless of whether she returns, the Barkley Marathons is an event that Paris will always hold dear.

What Courtney Dauwalter Learned in the Pain Cave
  + stars: | 2023-08-31 | by ( Rebecca Byerly | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
After running for 60 miles through snow, up steep, root-filled switchbacks with thousands of feet of elevation gain, Courtney Dauwalter entered what she calls her pain cave. Scott Jurek won Western States seven times (most recently in 2005) but never once ran as fast as Dauwalter did this year. She beat a 1994 Western States record set by Ann Trason, who won the race 14 times, by more than two hours. Now she is trying to do something even the most accomplished ultrarunners would consider extraordinary: win three highly competitive 100-mile races in a single summer. She has won the race twice and currently holds the women’s record.
